best Bits of the Week with Morgan. Part two Just the bits.
Host/Producer
Hello, hello everybody, and welcome to part two of Best Bits. And the reason you're probably here is to catch up on the Bobby Bones Show. So maybe you missed a few days this week or just want to get a real fast catch up in one podcast.
Amy
That's what this is all about.
Host/Producer
If you want to check out part one, part three this weekend, it is with Eddie. In part one, we just spiral. Eddie and I love to sit and chat and have full blown real person conversations. It's not really a podcast. There's no goal in mind. We just sit and chat. And in part three, we always answer listener questions. But if you don't want to do either of those, that's okay. I'm just happy that you're here to listen to part two. So let's get into it.
Commercial Voice
Mitchell.
Host/Producer
Timpenny stopped by the studio talking all things touring and music. But more than that, he is about to be a new dad. So we got the fun. Full scoop on it.
Morgan
Number seven.
Bobby Bones
Good to see you, buddy.
Mitchell Tenpenny
What's up, man? How you been?
Bobby Bones
I've been good. But how about you? About to have a baby.
Mitchell Tenpenny
I know, man. I couldn't be more excited. As cliche as it sounds like, I am so ready for this. We've wanted this for so long and. And to be a girl. Dad. Congrats.
Bobby Bones
Thanks. By the way, I can finally give you advice.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yes.
Bobby Bones
Because we're a few weeks into it right now.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yes. How is it? How's everything going?
Bobby Bones
Ah, it's good.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. The first few weeks are a blur.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Right?
Bobby Bones
You got a little bit of time.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Okay.
Bobby Bones
But it's a. Yeah, take some time off whenever you. Whenever that happens. So we have the clip here of you being Told now you guys were. Were praying before dinner, is that right?
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah, Breakfast. That morning we had woken breakfast.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah. We always say a prayer before we eat. And what?
Co-host/Contributor
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
You didn't know? You didn't know this was prayer?
Amy
Like, that didn't throw you off? You're like, why we're saying grace before breakfast?
Mitchell Tenpenny
No. Yeah, we always say grace before we eat. And so I was just waking up. She had gotten up early because she had taken a test apparently, and I had no idea. So super early. I'm waking up, she's praying and she says that, and it just blew my mind.
Amy
Thank you for our beautiful home and
Host/Producer
this beautiful marriage that you blessed us with.
Amy
And most of all, thank you for
Matchmaker
my amazing husband who I know is
Amy
also going to be an amazing dad.
Bobby Bones
Wait, what?
Co-host/Contributor
Are you kidding me?
Bobby Bones
That's really. That's how she told you? That's awesome. Way.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah, man. It was. It was awesome. And yeah, I'm just, you know, I'm waking up, I'm saying the prayer, like rubbing, you know, the wake up out of your eyes. And it just was the most amazing feeling. Just so many emotions we had. We had just flown down at the end of the year, two day vacation just to, you know, get away, and it just wasn't happening. And we kind of told each other, pumped each other up, you know, life's good. Like, it's okay. It's just not gonna happen. We're not gonna have a kid and kind of got ourselves in the mindset that that wasn't gonna happen and just, you know, be okay with it. And then, you know, when you least expect it, it happened a couple weeks later.
Bobby Bones
What's funny is she was down. My wife had actually just given birth, but the show went down to Atlanta with your wife, who's Megan Patrick. And she was playing, but they were like. They didn't say this on the air, but they were like, Megan didn't drink anything.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Oh.
Amy
Which I'm sure is a rel.
Mitchell Tenpenny
No. Yes. We knew that that was gonna be a. Probably one of the. The factors people started noticing first and, you know, which is great. But it's. Yeah, that was. That was one thing we couldn't hide there for sure.
Bobby Bones
It's crazy to have a girl because I feel like if it were a boy, I'd be rougher with it. Even if it's a newborn.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Sure.
Bobby Bones
Like, I feel like there's a softness that has been added to my life because it is a girl.
Mitchell Tenpenny
That's awesome.
Bobby Bones
And I did not think that would be the case. I just thought a baby's baby, right? It definitely is. I. And I'm sure people treat them differently, but there is a softness to it, being a girl that I think my wife really enjoys to see from me.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah, I believe that. My brother, he plays bass with me. He just had his little girl at Thanksgiving, and I can see that as well, which is why I'm very excited. I've had niece, and I love. My niece has been born, both of them. And I just. I love the energy, like, a little girl brings. I mean, it just changes your whole perspective on everything.
Bobby Bones
I'm already, like, wanting to beat up dudes, though. Like, I'm already in that, too. Like, other babies, I'm looking at them sideways like, you think my. My newborn's hot? You need to think again, man.
Mitchell Tenpenny
I've already gotten jokes from all my friends with boys, and then I'm just like, y' all better watch out, man.
Bobby Bones
Congratulations. That's awesome.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Thank you, brother. I'm so excited.
Bobby Bones
Speed of Light. You wrote this song. Like, what's it about?
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah, so actually, I wrote this with my buddy Teddy Swims, Incredible singer and artist, and actually we're writing for his record. And my buddy Dallas Wilson, he's a big songwriter in town. We've known each other for a long time, but we were writing for Teddy, and I just wanted a song that originally I had it at. At the Speed of Life. I had that title, and I wanted to write that just kind of things were happening. But then it just kept coming into this love song or this song of hope. Maybe it's a friend, maybe it's your partner, whatever it is, but just someone that's there for you, that no matter what, you know, is going to be there for you. And it really made me feel hopeful that day. And I was like, I want to write that. And so we did, and Teddy sung the song, and he absolutely crushed the demo. But I just kept listening to it, and I was like, man, this is. This is me. And where I'm at in my life right now, how I feel about my wife and, you know, my friends, and just this next chapter, it's. I was like, this really feels like me, man. I kind of want this song. And so I ended up recording my version of it and just falling in love with it. And.
Bobby Bones
Is that a weird ask. Hey, can I have the song?
Mitchell Tenpenny
No, man. Teddy, we write all the time, and we always usually sing, like, I'll do one verse and he'll do the other, because we just love to Sing together. It's so much fun to get in a room with him and record melodies and just sing. And so it was just one of those things. And. And I'm glad I did it, because it. I'm trying to do more music that is fitting me personally at the moment, because we write songs all the time, but sometimes by the time you record it, you're like, I'm not that person anymore. And so this one just felt like the right moment to put it out.
Bobby Bones
So what's happening now, musically? I know you guys are going out doing a bunch of shows, right? You know, shows a. Hardy.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah. Yeah.
Co-host/Contributor
We're.
Mitchell Tenpenny
We're in the middle of our tour. We're taking a break. We just finished this last weekend, and now we're about to hop out with Hardy for a few shows. I had just hit him up last year. I love. He's one of my really good buddies, and I love his energy and just hit him up. Said, dude, love to play a few with you next year. And so we worked that out, and
Bobby Bones
that's how it works. Let me text Garth.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah, yeah, text Garth.
Bobby Bones
You say, hey, love to play a few. You go on out. What do you. What do you start your show with? What song? When do you do the hits? Because you got a few. At this point, you got a bunch of hits. So when do you do the hits?
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah, right now. We start the show, not necessarily a hit, but one of. For our fans, it was. We used to do it with. We got history in the middle. We do Truth, but we always wait till the end for Drunk Me. And we kind of worked that into Iris. We did that version of Iris.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that was really cool.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah, man. I love that song so much. So it kind of works its way. We try to space them out. I don't. I don't like to be the guy that makes it wait to the very end, but, like, you gotta wait for that song. Plus, I gotta get my voice warmed up to sing Drunk Me every night, so it takes a whole.
Bobby Bones
Is that a hard one?
Mitchell Tenpenny
It's a. It's. It's up there, man. It's up there. And so, yeah, I just kind of work my way up to that point.
Bobby Bones
You ever see the video of. Speaking of Iris, Johnny Resnick singing Iris in the Rain at a concert.
Mitchell Tenpenny
It's embedded in my brain. That's what made me want to do this.
Bobby Bones
It's one of the greatest live concert clips I have ever seen, period.
Mitchell Tenpenny
I saw it on MTV when I was little and changed everything.
Bobby Bones
Like, he's soaked. And not only is he soaked, but it is still pouring. And he has his electric guitar on and he's singing this song that we all loved as kids. Like when. If it comes to like iconic things, I think of live music that I've seen. Garth swinging on the rope. Hits it. Central Park. Garth in Central Park. Awesome.
Mitchell Tenpenny
That was amazing.
Bobby Bones
This Johnny Resnick, him playing live. I also think of Freddie Mercury at Farm Aid in all white. Live Aid. Sorry.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Singing, you know, before he died. Yeah. That, that to me isn't like an iconic live concert moment. What comes to mind for you? I say that.
Mitchell Tenpenny
I was going to say that one for sure. And, and it's, it's funny you said Garth because I remember my parents like we, we did like a Super bowl style party for that show and watched it on tv. Like it was such a big moment
Bobby Bones
and there are a million people at that.
Mitchell Tenpenny
It's crazy. And I remember seeing the sky view of it and just being like, I've never seen that many people and I was, you know, I was younger. But I think, I mean, you just nailed the. Some of the classic ones for me, the iconic ones.
Bobby Bones
You write and you hear so much music. Do you ever just get bored?
Mitchell Tenpenny
Sometimes I get bored of writing the same stuff. Man, you just got to change up the rooms. I think the biggest thing for inspiration is a break.
Bobby Bones
Me too.
Mitchell Tenpenny
I don't think that the right every single day thing anymore is good for anybody. I don't think it's good for music. I don't think it's good for the town. I don't think it's good for the songwriters. I think, I think you need to take a break and live some life and write about that instead of just chasing the same formula all the time. You know, when you're just starting, it's like, I gotta write doubles every day. I gotta do this and I just gotta. Quantity, quantity. But I feel like we've lost a lot of quality because of that and I think that that's more important at this point.
Bobby Bones
Do you ever have a great concept and then you write a song and you go, man, that was such a great concept, but we didn't hit it exactly right.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And then you use that concept again later.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah, I. Millions of times for me, especially if I bring in the title and it's something I want to write. And I always say too, if someone else brought the title in that day and we wrote the song and I'm just like, we didn't nail it. I tell them hey, use that title somewhere else. Like, I. I won't ever. You know, don't worry about the copyrights. Like, that's your title. We didn't nail it. Go use it. Because some days it just doesn't work out. Everyone's not on the same page or, you know, whatever. The magic's not there. And it could be a great title and it just. You don't want it to get. Just put in a shelf. So, yeah, I definitely. That happens. And do the right thing. If you're one of the writers that didn't bring in the title, give it back to him.
Bobby Bones
We do a segment on our show called tell me something good. You can't use your baby, so tell me something from your life that's going good right now that is. Not that you're going to be a dad, because that's the most epic thing, but something other than that.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah, man. I mean, for me, I'm finally. I've got my dream studio almost built. I've wanted this my whole life.
Bobby Bones
Is it. Was it close to your house?
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah, it's behind my house. We built like, a barn doe. We live in the woods. We got away. We got, like a fishing pond. We got air. We just. It just feels peaceful to come home to. And I cannot wait to have that. I've wanted it my whole life to get in there and create, to have friends come out there and just, like I said, get out of that box, that 11 o' clock to 2 o' clock box, and just sit down, enjoy it, write a song, see what happens. I've been wanting that for a long time. And it's. It's right around the corner looking like May, we'll be finished with it, so.
Bobby Bones
Which means July, but still. That's cool.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Anything is built. It never hits.
Mitchell Tenpenny
You're definitely right.
Bobby Bones
But that's super cool. You still get tattoos.
Mitchell Tenpenny
It's been a minute. I'm not, like, off of them. I just haven't.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
It's.
Mitchell Tenpenny
They're always random. Someone's, you know, backstage with them or we're walking the streets and there's a tattoo shop.
Bobby Bones
You're just walking the streets. You'll hop into a place.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah, I've done them many of times.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, you see the story about Brock Lesnar, because he has that.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Oh, he said.
Bobby Bones
He said he was so drunk when he got the tattoo, like, he was hammered.
Mitchell Tenpenny
It's an iconic tattoo. You gotta have it.
Amy
But do you wonder if it's random, though? Like, if your artist is gonna be legit, like if you're just like, let's pop in here. What if it's their first day?
Mitchell Tenpenny
Usually they're like little stamp style things. If I'm doing that.
Amy
Okay. Like, nothing.
Mitchell Tenpenny
The bigger pieces I've done. I've gone in and had somebody I wanted done. But yeah, it's usually like, yeah, why not? Let's do it. Like, I've got them on my legs and stuff from like, Corey camp was like, let's get a pirate. And I'm like, let's do it. And so we got. I got a pirate on my leg.
Bobby Bones
I like Corey Kent a lot.
Mitchell Tenpenny
I love him. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And we've. We're talking about him on the show. And I have family friends that are friends with him too, because all my family's from Oklahoma. What's up with that dude? Tell me something about that dude that we don't know about, Corey Kent.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Well, he's an awesome father and husband. If you don't know, you should. And he's just a great guy. Works his butt off, you know, doing that with the kids that age. When we met, we met on tour and he was opening up, we were opening for Aldean and we just became good buddies, man. Just talking about life. He's just a good guy, good person. You want to surround yourself with great morals, values, and also super talented, man.
Bobby Bones
He's really, he's real good. Right. Like, he's one of those artists too, that they have stories of them grinding.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Right.
Bobby Bones
Like, I started, I built up a local, I went regional and like, when he tells you war stories, you respect it.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah, he's. That's exactly what he is. And like I said, the most important, you know, father and husband. I think he's just a great guy all around him.
Bobby Bones
Well, man, congratulations on everything. The new song is really good.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Thank you.
Bobby Bones
You're gonna have a baby. Were you itching to have that information out so you could tell people? We wait until that point where it's safe to tell people.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah, man. I mean, I don't want to get down, but you know, my brother, we lost our niece last year. You know, we got her for a few months and that was just really weighing on me. I didn't want to say anything too early. I didn't want to do that stuff. And we had, you know, a lot of prayer and a lot of family. You know, it brought us closer, but I just didn't want that nightmare again. And so now feeling like, you know, I would never say in the clear, you know, that's whatever plan is the plan but feel a lot better and I just feel relieved to be able to get it out because I hate hiding anything. And like my wife, we were just so excited and overjoyed.
Bobby Bones
We wanted to tell people what a great video too. Like it just is you guys and you're so natural element seeing a very natural moment.
Amy
And I have like, I mean, you know, people have baby reveal or gender reveal. Like I have. I don't know that I have seen anybody do it or tell their partner while they're saying grace. So perfect.
Mitchell Tenpenny
It was amazing and it was perfectly special. Special and just something that I didn't expect and I'm just so glad she filmed it, honestly.
Bobby Bones
The Speed of Light tour also out with Hardy. You guys go to Mitchell's. I mean you go to his Instagram but I just want to say it because It's Mitchell. The number 10 penny.com if you go to the website or you can just go search Mitchell socials. Congratulations on everything. Thank you. And Mitchell's a great singer by the way. Like this is not studio tricks. I'm telling you. This dude can go. So Mitchell Tenpenny. There he is. You guys stream Speed of Light a million times because now, hey, babies aren't cheap. I tell you. I tell you from experience, babies are not cheap. There's Mitch, Tiffany, everybody.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Thank you guys so much.

It's the best bits of the week with Morgan number two.

Host/Producer
See full terms@mintmobile.com there is some mischief going on in Eddie's neighborhood. So him and some dads have taken it upon themselves to rectify the situation and go on neighborhood watch number six.
Bobby Bones
Eddie says someone is graffiti ing his neighborhood.
Co-host/Contributor
Yeah, they're spray painting stuff. Street signs, you know, telephone poles, even a house that's being built inside. They tagged it all with spray paint.
Bobby Bones
Are they riding any bad on it
Co-host/Contributor
or just they're writing a certain word? I don't even want to say the word just in case they're listening because we're going to catch them.
Bobby Bones
What do you mean?
Co-host/Contributor
So me and a couple other dads, we have these shifts that we're doing. We're going to stay up all night and we're going to catch these guys. We think they're kids. Like there's no way these are adults.
Amy
Are you worried they might be armed?
Co-host/Contributor
No. Armed with a spray can? Like spray paint?
Bobby Bones
Okay, I wouldn't think they were armed.
Amy
Okay. I would be so nervous.
Bobby Bones
And you guys are going to stay awake through the night? Yeah.
Co-host/Contributor
I have Friday and Saturday because I told them guys, I have a weird, like, work schedule. I can't stay up all night on the weekdays, but Friday night, Saturday night, stay up with some beers, watching the neighborhood. I'm down.
Bobby Bones
You're going to stay up all night long?
Co-host/Contributor
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And drive around with beers. Maybe you shouldn't do that.
L
Okay.
Co-host/Contributor
Walk around with a flashlight, something. But I want to catch these kids.
Amy
If you walk around with a flashlight, you'll deter them.
Co-host/Contributor
Oh, so hide.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
You got to dress all in black.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And if you're driving around, don't drive. I mean, I wouldn't even drive
Amy
on foot in black. But make sure people know that you're the. You're. That's your shift. Because then they're gonna come get you. Think you're the guy.
Bobby Bones
Well, if you're not spraying things. Yeah.
Co-host/Contributor
It's just me and two other dads.
Amy
Okay, so.
Bobby Bones
And what are you gonna do if you see them?
Co-host/Contributor
Call the other dads. Be like, I got them. I got eyes on them. What do we do now?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I think you should come up with a plan before you run into them cops.
Co-host/Contributor
I mean, you got right. That's illegal to vandalize.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
Can you give the cops a heads up?
Bobby Bones
I would call the cops first before I would do any sort of, like, Spider man dad group.
Co-host/Contributor
Oh, really? Yeah, probably neighborhood watch.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I'd probably be like, hey, we got people spray painting. We're going to try to figure out who it is. But what do we do in case we find them?
Amy
That's what I would do. Because neighborhood watches are encouraged by police, so they want that. But yeah, I would want. That's a good idea, Bobby. You need to get a game plan. And I think calling the police to get the game plan is good.
Co-host/Contributor
Okay.
Bobby Bones
I. Well, some neighborhoods have the sign. It's like Neighborhood one.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I used to get so jealous, though, when people would adopt a highway and I'd see their name up on the sign I drive by, I'd be like, dang, they got their name on a sign. Adopt a highway. Do you guys ever have that back in the day? Adopt a highway to clean it up, people.
Co-host/Contributor
I've seen it.
Amy
I wasn't ever jealous of it.
Bobby Bones
But you would see the signs you drive by and be like, the next Miles adopted by. And you didn't get jealous that you weren't on one of those signs?
Amy
No, no, I didn't.
Co-host/Contributor
Oh, man, I never saw anyone cleaning up either. Like, I saw.
Bobby Bones
And sometimes I see Trash on the road and those. I'd be like, that place sucks.
Amy
Oh, y' all would never. Prison workers cleaning up.
Bobby Bones
But it's not Adopt a highway. Adopt a Highway is like a company or a church, and their name gets to be on the sign. And then we celebrate them every time we drive by.
Co-host/Contributor
I wonder how much that is. Now that you're older, do you want to adopt one free? To adopt a highway, you just have
Amy
to keep it clean.
Bobby Bones
You have to keep it clean.
Co-host/Contributor
Oh, that makes sense. I thought they actually paid money to have that highway.
Amy
No.
Co-host/Contributor
And you can tell everyone from there on out, like, that's my highway. That mile right there.
Amy
We could do a section and then go clean it together.
Bobby Bones
I'm good. I'm good on the sign thing now. But as a kid, I was very jealous.
Amy
You can finally get something you used to be jealous of and have my own sign.
Bobby Bones
I have my own sign in my neighborhood.
Co-host/Contributor
That's true. And you don't have to clean up
Bobby Bones
any trash in your neighborhood. Where I grew up. Oh, yeah. I have it in my own neighborhood. Welcome to Bobby's house. It's generally free for volunteers who perform the cleanup themselves with tools provided by the state.
Amy
Oh, okay.
Bobby Bones
I was always jealous when he drove by. Nobody ever did adopt a highway, huh? No. All right, well, Scuba, what's up?
Co-host/Contributor
Well, I have a street here in Nashville.
Bobby Bones
I adopted Main street, you know, between,
Co-host/Contributor
like, kind of where Nissan Stadium is right there.
Bobby Bones
What do you mean you adopted it?
L
I adopted.
Sponsor/Announcer
I'm like you as a kid.
Bobby Bones
I was always like, this is so freaking cool.
Sponsor/Announcer
You could adopt a street and then
Bobby Bones
your name on it. Yeah, it says Scuba Steve radio, and it says 105,9 the rock underneath it. I own, like, a massive part of Nashville going into. Well, you don't own it.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Well, it is my street, though.
Sponsor/Announcer
Like, just like you.
Bobby Bones
You clean it.
Mitchell Tenpenny
I clean it four times a year.
L
Yeah.
Sponsor/Announcer
And I put my name on the street.
Co-host/Contributor
And you actually clean it.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
I go out there with my wife. And your name's on the sign.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
I'm jealous again.
Amy
I just suggested this.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I don't want, like, that.
Mitchell Tenpenny
It is a lot of work.
Bobby Bones
Four times a year. Who has time for that? That's pretty cool, Scuba Steve.
Co-host/Contributor
Yeah.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Thanks, man.
Morgan
It's the best bits of the week with Morgan Number two.
Host/Producer
Bobby has been wanting to support his niece. He opened up about their relationship this week. She has prom coming up, and she's going to be graduating soon, so he's in full uncle mode.
Bobby Bones
Number five voicemails I think it is
Amy
so sweet that you are helping her out with her nails and, you know, the dress and just asking her, like, how you can help and just with her acts and sats and just really stepping up as an uncle and just wanted to let you know that Billie is very, very lucky to have a dad like you. All right, take care, guys.
Bobby Bones
I was talking on the podcast, I have a niece who is a junior in high school. And, like, I'm in. Like, it's time to make good decisions. 11th grade, you got to make good decisions about your future. So I've been on her about her act because she hadn't taken it yet. I was like, you gotta take your test. Gotta take your test. They came to town. I got in a car with just her. I was like, only you ride with me because we're have a talk. You gotta take your test, and it's going to be bad. And then your second one will be pretty bad, but third one will be fine, and your fourth one will be great. So it's like, that kind of talk. I'm very pragmatic in speech, and sometimes that cannot be extremely motivational or how people want to be talked to.
Co-host/Contributor
Right.
Bobby Bones
So she took it, and I was proud of her. And she did find it pretty good. Better than I thought she was going to do a first time. And she was like, this is what I did, Uncle Bobby. And I was like, all right, start taking that practice test. We're getting in for two, then we're going to get in for three. And so she doesn't have a driver's license yet. And it's just crazy. We talked about this with your daughter. Sometimes kids don't want to have a driver's license because they have other ways to get around. But my niece has a job, and I'm going, go take your driver's test. If you do it, I will buy you a car. I said, I will buy you a car if you go. I'm not going to go and buy her a Maserati.
Amy
Well, yeah, of course.
Bobby Bones
I mean, I even have four wheels on it. Who knows? But I was like, I will buy you a car if you go on you and you pass your driver's test. Because I want her to be able to get to work. I want her to be able to, you know, do the things that will help her as she gets closer to going to college. And so proms coming up. And I was like, what's up with prom? She was like, it's coming up, like, April 24th or something. Like, whatever it was. Yeah. I was like, what are you guys going to do? She's like, well, we're talking about getting our nails done, me and two of my friends. I said, okay, you're doing good. I'll pay for all that. How much? I was thinking, like, 80 bucks. I'll be honest.
Amy
For three people.
Bobby Bones
I don't know. I don't know how much.
Co-host/Contributor
I know that stuff.
Bobby Bones
I don't know how much I cost. I was very happy to send over 80 bucks. And she said, let me ask. And she came back. She goes for all three of us because nails and toes by 500. So send her that. As long as she's doing the work, I'm here. So got her dress taken care of for prom. I just want to give her the resources to make the right decisions. I'm not going to make the right decisions for her, but I want to make sure that she has the ability to not have to worry about the wrong things so she can make decisions on the right things and do the work for the right things. I think growing up, where I grew up and how I grew up, you didn't always have time to focus on the things that could get you ahead because you had to focus on the things that would keep you alive right now. And so, yeah, I don't think. Listen, I appreciate the Met that. Hey, Billy's gonna be very lucky to have a dad like you. I don't know if those matter together at all. I don't know.
Amy
I think they're related.
Bobby Bones
Maybe. Maybe.
Amy
I was thinking about it yesterday after. I mean, I was walking my dog. Thinking about. It's like, oh, wow, you know, Bobby's gonna be a really involved dad. Like a really involved parent. Something you didn't have. Like, you're going to be on it with your kids. Like, these are the things you need to do. Like, it was. You were showing that with your niece of like, you need to start practicing this. Nobody was telling you unless it was someone at school or something. But no one in your home was saying, hey, we need to be gearing up for the act. You know? Like, that didn't come from home.
Bobby Bones
No, at school, it was like, you need to be gearing up for the job.
Co-host/Contributor
That big old job you're going to
Bobby Bones
get out of here. And they're like, hey, any word from your dad? And I was like, no, I've been gone for years. Yeah, I'm just spelling stuff now. But I appreciate the message. I just want to make sure that the things that she doesn't need to worry about. She doesn't need to worry about. So she can worry about the things she needs to worry about, like she wants to go to college, and she wants to go. We've talked about where she wants to go. And I'm like, look, if you can get in, I'll pay for your college. Like, done. Consider it done. I'll pay for it. But you got to get in. I'm not getting you. I'm not calling anybody going, hey, can my niece get in? Give me some favors. You get in, I'll cover it. Then you got to make the good grades. So, yeah, that's what's up. I'm rooting for, I guess, right? Makes sense. I'm rooting for. All right, give me voicemail number two. We love you, Bobby. We always just had this question, though.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Why is Lunchbox's name Lunchbox? We haven't been listening too long, so I'm sure somewhere there.
Bobby Bones
But always have that question.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Bye.
Bobby Bones
So he will tell you a completely different story than the real story. Do you want to tell the story that he tells?
Amy
I mean, the version that comes to my mind right now is that he had a lunchbox that his mom.
Bobby Bones
He stole it.
Amy
Yeah. And then he nicknamed his Lunchbox. But then also he worked at Jason's Deli delivering lunch boxes. So the.
Co-host/Contributor
Didn't his mom catch him? And then he said, what do you have in your shirt? And he's like, pick it up in the lunchbox.
Bobby Bones
That's what he says. He says, do you know the actual story?
Amy
You gave it to him?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah, I like Kevin Smith, the actor and the writer, the director. And he would call Silent Jay. Silent Bob would call Jay. Jay would call Silent Bob Lunchbox. Jay talked, Silent Bob didn't. He'd call him Lunchbox. And I was like, that's a funny name for, like, a partner. And so I would just start calling. I called Lunchbox Lunchbox.
Co-host/Contributor
Oh, that's interesting.
Bobby Bones
It's way less interesting than the story he's made up.
Co-host/Contributor
But I didn't know the Kevin Clerks. Smith.
Bobby Bones
Kevin Smith Mallrets. Yeah. Yeah. He'd be like, Lunchbox. So I thought that was a funny name. That's where it comes from. All right, give me number four.
Amy
Ray, question for everyone.
Matchmaker
If you are in the middle of
Amy
reading a book and about halfway through the book, you decide, it's not really
Matchmaker
for me, I'm not really interested anymore.
Amy
Do you stay committed and finish the book, or do you just leave it alone and move on to A new book. Love to hear your thoughts. I love the show.
Bobby Bones
Thank you, Amy. Your thoughts?
Amy
Yeah. I'll abandon a book, no problem. No, I have no problem if I'm not. Listen, with my brain, I need to really be into it, and I have no problem being like, oh, I've already invested this much. That's okay. I'm okay. I shall set the book down and find something that I'll be interested in, because I know it's going to be torture trying to finish the rest of
Bobby Bones
it if I'm halfway through, I'll finish it.
Amy
No, not to. I.
Bobby Bones
And I'll, like, hate read. And I'll read fast. Like, I hate this book, and I'll read as fast as I can to get through it. And then if. Sometimes when I'm reading, if my mind gets sidetracked, I'm like, oh, the last couple pages, I don't remember what happened. I don't go back. I'm just trying to get through it.
Amy
Yeah. Oh, I wouldn't either. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
If it's like, the first quarter of the book, I'm out, then I burn it. Oh, I don't even like burning books, but I burn that book. Have a whole thing outside. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So we talked about Amy going to Home Depot. What'd you get at Home Depot?
Amy
I got my Milwaukee cordless blower. And let me tell you, someone asked me, like, what are you doing this weekend? Like, blowing. Yes. Yeah. So I'm very, very, very excited about that. And then my mineral growth soil. Like, I'm going to start gardening, but not, you know, how I want to do my garden. Garden with vegetables. So that you'll pick me to stay with you for the end of the world or be on your team. Like, I needed what she doesn't know.
Bobby Bones
We're just planning to eat her. We're like, yeah, you can be on our end of the world team. We get her in, we just eat her.
Amy
Yeah. So it's not that kind of gardening, but my flower beds, like, in the front of my house, I'm starting to get those ready, and I'm planting some hydrangeas and getting my yard ready for that. Looking more, you know, what do they call it? Like, curbside appeal? Curb appeal. I want my car to have my house to have more curb appeal.
Bobby Bones
Trying to sell it.
Amy
No, I mean, I've been approached yard of the month.
Bobby Bones
You've been approached?
Amy
I've been asked, would my house be for sale?
Bobby Bones
This happens to every house. I think it's just scammers.
Amy
No.
Bobby Bones
It's not every house Amy goes to. Someone shows up and it's like, can I buy this from you?
Co-host/Contributor
$3 million guys.
Amy
No, it's not.
Bobby Bones
My uncle's the king of Zimbabwe and it'll come in an account on Tuesday.
Amy
Now, I know it sounds crazy, but wow, I really have been approached and it's worked out every time in my favor and so I don't know, like,
Co-host/Contributor
I've never been approached.
Bobby Bones
Well, maybe me either.
Amy
Maybe you need to work on your curb appeal.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Maybe. Yes.
Bobby Bones
Step up here. Maybe you need a Milwaukee blower.
Co-host/Contributor
That's it.
Amy
Cordless.

Host/Producer
If you did happen to catch a few moments of the show this week, then you probably did not hear Lunchbox, and that is because he's been out sick all week. He has something new going on and it prevented him from coming into the studio.
Morgan
Number four.
Bobby Bones
Lunchbox got sick again today, but I wanted to bring him on and talk to him so you guys could actually hear this. Because you guys don't know anything, right?
Co-host/Contributor
Nothing.
Bobby Bones
All right. This is Lunchbox. By the way, his voice is totally screwed up. Lunchbox, good morning.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
How are we doing?
Bobby Bones
Oh, he's okay.
Co-host/Contributor
That's better.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Yeah, I'm not bad. Hey, I'm not bad. You guys are exaggerating.
Bobby Bones
All right, all right. You're not here again today as.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
No, I'm absent.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Do you want to tell the studio what you have?
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Yeah, guys, I got a little sickness. I went to the minute clinic. They did a little swabby swab. And congratulations, your boy has got Covid.
Amy
Yeah, I could have.
Bobby Bones
Again. Yeah. How'd you. How do you think you got it?
Amy
I guessed it, man.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
There's one a million ways. I mean, last week I was on top of the world, Had a watch party with all these people at my house and a lot of Germs. So maybe from that, maybe from the kids, maybe from baseball games. I mean, who knows? A lot of people in my life that could have given me those little germs.
Bobby Bones
Do you think you're sick a lot?
Lunchbox (Daniel)
No, I don't. I really don't.
Co-host/Contributor
How do you not think that?
Bobby Bones
He misses about a show every two weeks, right?
Co-host/Contributor
Yes.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
I mean, I did. I did have strep, like, a month and a half ago. That was. That was bad, but.
Bobby Bones
And then you had. Besides, that was a yeast infection in his throat.
Amy
It's been a minute.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
I did have a yeast infection in my throat. Yeah. I mean, but I wouldn't say I'm sick a lot. I just think that it stands out more because I actually admit when I'm sick, you know? Whereas Amy, she just comes to work and just don't worry about it. I'll just act like I'm not sick.
Amy
Does anybody in your family have Covid as well?
Lunchbox (Daniel)
No, that I know of.
Amy
Oh. So are you quarantining?
Bobby Bones
Amy didn't even take the shot. Yeah, she just moved on. Like, she didn't respond. She just moved on. I know.
Co-host/Contributor
I noticed that.
Bobby Bones
Oh, good for you.
Amy
Thank you.
Bobby Bones
Like, he's. I know, Trying to deflect and.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Yeah, but. But I mean, you got to give me my flowers. Because I did feel a tickle in my throat, and I immediately thought, oh, man, Bobby's baby. I gotta get out of here. I mean, that was brave of me. I could have stuck it out.
Bobby Bones
You didn't think. Bobby's baby. We heard the voicemail that you sent Scuba. You were like, bobby's gonna kill me. Yes, but anybody that's sick, I don't wanna risk it. You're not allowed to come up here if you're sick. But he has Covid and you're not coming back this week, right?
Lunchbox (Daniel)
I don't know.
Co-host/Contributor
What are you feeling, man?
Bobby Bones
You lose your voice? You lose your taste? Your taste and smell or anything?
Lunchbox (Daniel)
No, I haven't done any of that, but I'm really stopped up. Really. Like, just drainage and just like, oh. And I mean, I just felt kind of crummy, you know what I mean? Slept a lot yesterday. Just kind of, you know, I was like, ah, man, I don't know why I'm so tired. And so finally I was like, maybe I need to go to the minute clinic. And I went. And they were. The lady was like, well, I don't think it's a flu, but you want me to swab you for Covid? Just in case. I was like, yeah, why not?
Amy
And so interesting. The Minute Clinic. Like, I. My first move. I'm curious. What y' all do is I go get a COVID test or flu test? Two in one.
Bobby Bones
Yes.
Amy
And.
Bobby Bones
And walk Rangers, cvs.
Co-host/Contributor
Right.
Amy
And I take it, and then. I know.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
So it's just. I don't know.
Host/Producer
It's interesting.
Amy
I guess he's just so used to
Bobby Bones
going to the Minute Clinic. He has an open bar, a tab at the Minute Clinic.
Amy
Hey, Daniel.
Bobby Bones
Daniel from Price is Right. Yeah.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Hey. She did say. She goes, I've seen you before. I knew it. We were old friends. I was like, yeah. And the urgent care right by my house. She always asked me, oh, how you doing? How are the kids? Like, they know us by, you know.
Co-host/Contributor
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Are you dying right now?
Co-host/Contributor
Sounds like.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
No, I'm not dying right now.
Bobby Bones
Do you feel bad right now, or are you just stopped up?
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Stopped up? I took some Advil, you know, a little bit ago, so it feels. I feel all right right now, but I woke up feeling pretty crummy.
Bobby Bones
All right, anything else, guys? We just want to get him on and say hi and let you know he has Covid.
Co-host/Contributor
I just want to make sure that he's not coming back for the rest of the week.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
I'll probably come back tomorrow, maybe.
Amy
No, because Covid. What's the rule? Five days?
Bobby Bones
I don't even think a month. I thought Covid went away and, like, didn't exist for a while.
Amy
No, my friend had it last week.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
So does she sound like me?
Amy
Yeah, she was pretty bad. Like, it knocked her down.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Yeah, that's what the doctor said. She said she's using the. She said she's a couple of weeks, and it's really. You're stopped up really bad. She goes, there's so many variants, but it's not as bad as it used to be where it just kills you. But, yeah, I mean, we're. We're rocking and rolling.
Bobby Bones
All right, we'll keep rock and rolling at home.
Amy
And he would like flowers for not coming in.
Bobby Bones
He said he wants his flowers for not exposing us to the flu or any other illness.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Covid.
Bobby Bones
All right, well, we're. We're hoping you get better. Hey, are more people surprised your name is Daniel, since you want all the prices, right?
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Yeah. Yeah, but we don't say that anymore. We've moved on. We don't use that name anymore. We're back to lunchbox, are we?
Co-host/Contributor
No, I kind of like Daniel.
Bobby Bones
I kind of like Daniel, too.
Co-host/Contributor
It's like a fresh.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
No, no, guys, no, stop. We're not doing that crap. We're not changing my name all of a sudden. How boring is that? Like.
Co-host/Contributor
No, no, I figure you'd want that. Lunchbox. Like, just, you know, I want to. I want to be me now.
Bobby Bones
Dan Box.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Why. Why would we do that? That's just dumb.
Bobby Bones
All right, all right. Lunchbox. We will.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Hey, so you want me there tomorrow?
Bobby Bones
I don't think by listening to you now, it's good for you to come in tomorrow. Like, we can play it by ear, but I don't. I don't know the rules.
Amy
I don't think we're playing this one by ear. He can't. You have a baby. He's not. Tomorrow's too soon.
Co-host/Contributor
Can't risk it.
Amy
Maybe. Maybe.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
I mean, I have three kids. What do you. I mean, I have babies and you came into the studio. Don't worry about it. You didn't worry about my kids.
Amy
Bobby's baby.
Bobby Bones
But I don't know that. I don't know that.
Amy
A newborn.
Bobby Bones
He had newborns and you were sick. That's what he's trying to say.
Amy
Correct?
Bobby Bones
He said you came in and you were sick.
Amy
I know. I don't know what these random shots towards me are, but it's okay. We'll just.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Just.
Amy
We'll just state the facts here that Bobby has a new baby.
Co-host/Contributor
So if he does come in, though, can we do what we did last time? Put him in another studio?
Amy
Oh, yeah, that's an option.
Co-host/Contributor
Yeah, that's always good.
Bobby Bones
Or we just have him just turn him up from home with his phone.
Co-host/Contributor
It's true. We could do that too.
Bobby Bones
We go to the Daniel lines.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Let's go over.
Bobby Bones
We got Daniel nine, eight.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Oh, my gosh. You got. Yeah, lunchboxes here hanging out. But if you're interested in what I'm doing right now, I'm re watching season two of Hacks because I turned on season three and I was like, I don't remember any of this. So I. I know I've watched season two, but I'm had to rewatch it.
Bobby Bones
So what if when he's being normal, he's Daniel? But if it's like you're going lunchbox on us.
Co-host/Contributor
That's funny.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, like when he goes, like, over.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
It's not funny, guys. It's not funny.
Bobby Bones
But when he gets angry, like, he sounds like Daniel sick because he's a little vulnerable. Definitely hurting.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
People are going to tune in and not know what you're talking about? Like, I mean, we don't do that. We don't just change after 22 years.
Bobby Bones
I would say if you don't change, you end up going the way of the dodo bird.
Amy
Yeah. Not evolving. You're dead.
Co-host/Contributor
Remember Ray changed him to Raymundo.
Bobby Bones
Yep. And he's not even Mexican. Exactly. People think he's.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Oh, my gosh. You guys are. You guys are idiots.
Bobby Bones
Like, are we upsetting you, Daniel?
Lunchbox (Daniel)
No, you're not upsetting me. You're just annoying me.
Bobby Bones
Oh, you responded to Daniel.
Amy
Good.
Bobby Bones
All right, good.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
I didn't hear you say that.
Bobby Bones
All right. Get better.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
All right, man. Well, I'll see you guys tomorrow.
Bobby Bones
No, I don't think you will. I don't think you will. But there is lunchbox, AKA you may know Daniel from.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
That's it. That's all there is. Lunchbox is all we got.
Bobby Bones
All right. Violence.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Bye, guys.
Morgan
It's the best bits of the week with Morgan.
Host/Producer
Number two, Amy was talking to one of her neighbors and got some crazy news about her house. The kind of news that makes you think maybe I shouldn't live here. Yeah, it was not good. And this wasn't disclosed to her when she bought the home either.
Bobby Bones
Number three, Amy found out somebody died in her house randomly.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
What?
Bobby Bones
It wasn't disclosed. Right. And not a murder.
Amy
No. And this is information I didn't ask for. It just came upon me. And then once it was said out loud, there was a lot of regret.
Bobby Bones
You didn't want to know?
Amy
Well, regret from the person that told me. She was like, oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh. I shouldn't have said anything. You didn't know. And I was like, nope, didn't know.
Bobby Bones
What happened?
Amy
Well, I'm talking to a neighbor of mine. She has lived in my neighborhood for decades, and so she's going through and talking about all the different people that had lived in our area, and particularly this one sweet couple that lived in my house. And she goes, oh, well, I'm sure you know. And then she paused, and she's like, nevermind. And I was like, sure that I know what?
Bobby Bones
Oh, when someone hits with the. Nevermind. You got it.
Amy
And then she goes, oh, I shouldn't say. And I was like, you should. What's going on? She's like, well, someone died in your house. And I said, okay. She's like, oh, you know. You know, I don't know if I should tell you more. I said, well, okay. At this point, I think I'm okay with knowing More, as long as it wasn't anything gruesome. And she said, oh, no, no, it wasn't gruesome. It was very peaceful. She was going out to her car in the garage. Now, in my garage, I have these steps that go up to the door that leads into my house. So apparently she was headed out to her car and stopped and took a break on the steps.
Bobby Bones
How old she was?
Amy
Maybe in her 50s or like, she was still young.
Mitchell Tenpenny
Wasn't old.
Amy
She was an old old, like 55 to 65 was the guess. So then she's going to her car, but takes a break on the steps and sits down and she said. And then I don't know if, like. Because she's now told me someone died, and I don't want it to be gruesome. So then the story became really sort of spiritual and angelic, almost like she's going out to her car and she sits down on the steps to take a break, and kind of her elbows are on her knees with her palms facing up towards heaven. And that's all. She was found.
Bobby Bones
Okay, that person changed the story on you.
Amy
She was found, like, had a heart
Bobby Bones
attack, like, asking for it from above.
Amy
Or like, take me surrendering. Yeah. To the Lord.
Bobby Bones
That ain't the story.
Co-host/Contributor
When you die, do you stay like that?
Amy
Well, she. I don't know, Eddie.
Bobby Bones
None of that story's real.
Amy
None of that shortened out because her. Well, at first, I'm not convinced that
Bobby Bones
somebody didn't come in and stab her to death.
Amy
Well, first it was. No, no, I don't.
Bobby Bones
As soon as she found out you didn't want to know, that story changed immediately.
Amy
Well, she. At first she presented as hands were in the air towards heaven. And I. And then I said, hands were in the air towards heaven. She goes, well, kind of resting on her knees with her palms up. And she. And you know, there's a railing, so she could have, like, had a heart attack. Hands on her knees, almost like. Maybe her hands are on her head, like, oh, what is this pain? And then she leans over and maybe she was found like this.
Bobby Bones
Would you have bought that house had you known someone died in the garage?
Amy
Yes, I'm fine with it. Someone dying in a manner like that.
Bobby Bones
You don't know that that's true. I think she changed the story once.
Amy
You didn't want to leave. Well, I think that that's what happened. That has to. I don't know. My neighbor's very sweet, very kind. She felt terrible. And I. She. She honestly thought I already Knew. But then she started backtracking and then she gave me the legit story. I do think that maybe the hands in the air could have been an added touch for peace of mind, but no, I'm fine with it. Like people. I've lived in older houses before where I'm sure people died peacefully.
Bobby Bones
You still watch house.
Amy
I would have bought the house if it's that. I'm not gonna buy the house if there was a murder.
Bobby Bones
What if it was like, half off?
Amy
No, I don't want.
Bobby Bones
No, there's a price I'll get to. I'm not gonna buy a house at normal price if there's a murder. I'm probably not going to buy for 10% off. But if we're like, bogo, buy one house going house free or half off, I'm probably buying the house.
Amy
Okay, well, then I'm going to need to gut the. Since I'm getting such an amazing deal, then I have money to gut the entire inside because I don't want it to be. I don't want it to look anything like it looked where someone was murdered.
Bobby Bones
You don't avoid your neighbors at all. You like your neighbors?
Amy
No, I like my neighbors.
Bobby Bones
There's a story about a third of Americans admit to avoiding their neighbors. Just period. Like, if they see them, they don't, like, want to see them. But you're good with yours.
Amy
I'm fine with mine. There's one that I want to talk to that I haven't talked to.
Bobby Bones
No, she's one of the third avoiding you.
Amy
Oh, I didn't think of it that way. But it's like I always have. I'm either on a phone call when I'm walking my dog or listening to something, and then she's kind of doing something. And then also now the time has gone to where it's been almost two years now to where now it feels awkward. Like, shouldn't we have talked by now? And so it's a dilemma. I didn't think about her avoiding me, though.
Bobby Bones
Remember the one neighbor that was wrong about you?
Amy
Well, she wasn't avoiding me, apparently. She said I was avoiding her.
Bobby Bones
And she wrote a letter.
Amy
She sent me an email.
Co-host/Contributor
Oh, that you wouldn't, like, wave back.
Amy
And she signed it the Moms of my Street. She put the street name like she was representing everybody on the street.
Co-host/Contributor
Dang.
Amy
I still think about that sometimes. Cause that really hurt me at my core because I felt so misunderstood. Because she said what she said, that. I mean, we're paraphrasing I still have the email, but she paraphrase. To paraphrase it, she said that while on walks, they are there. There are moms on our street that I. That notice I avoid and turn down the other street so I don't have to pass them. And they are from Nashville. They're used to seeing known people, like, so she probably far more known or famous than I, which I don't even think that I am that. But being, I guess, a radio personality in town, I don't know. She put me in that basket of that, you know, I don't need to feel weird about walking by them. They're used to talking to people like that. And that it's, in a nutshell, rude that I was being rude and avoiding them and that. And then she signed it that it'd be great if. If our kids ever want to get together and play, though. And then signed it, not her name, but from moms of insert my street. And I thought, well, this is interesting. And it was sent close to midnight.
Bobby Bones
Dang. She must be, like, having wine maybe after some.
Amy
Some. Maybe a cocktail or two. Yeah, that. So that's probably what's sitting with me, Bobby. Honestly, with my newish neighbor that I haven't talked to because I don't want her to think I'm trying to avoid her, because I'm not.
Bobby Bones
You avoid your neighbors?
Co-host/Contributor
Yeah. I mean, there are some that I like, but for the most part now, I kind of. I kind of avoid them.
Bobby Bones
Why?
Co-host/Contributor
Mostly because I don't want to bother them, you know, like, people.
Bobby Bones
I.
Co-host/Contributor
Just because we live near each other doesn't mean we have to have a strong relationship, you know? Like, there are a couple dads that they get there, and I throw them away, and they just get their stuff and they go in the house, and I'm like, that's cool. Like, you want to get in your house. We don't have to talk, you know, but if some want to talk, sure, I'll talk to them. But I'm not. I'm not initiating it.
Amy
Like, some of my relationships to this day are from the neighborhood I grew up in because of my mom's friendships in our neighborhood.
Bobby Bones
Different time, though, back in those days, you just go knock on someone's door and be like, hey, I'm here to hang out.
Amy
But why is it intrusive, like, to take someone, like, a meal if they're sick or, like, yeah, if they've had. Like, we feel. I know. I feel it, too. Like, oh, I don't want to be intrusive but it's like, wait a second, when did that become intrusive? Like, taking a casserole to someone's house used to be the norm.
Co-host/Contributor
Well, I'm talking about, like, when people are outside. Like, just because you catch them between the car door to their front door, like, doesn't mean they want to talk to anyone, you know? And like, just because people are outside, I'm like, give them their space. They want to go inside. Do your thing.
Bobby Bones
You guys have like block parties or anything?
Co-host/Contributor
Some people do down the street.
Bobby Bones
Do you ever go?
Co-host/Contributor
Nah, no. No. But man, I love waving at everyone. Like, that's my thing. Drive by with the music on, wave to them. That makes me feel like I'm being a good neighbor. But we don't have to do the,
Amy
like, cross the line. Like, yeah.
Bobby Bones
You know how I'm a good neighbor? If they deliver the wrong ubereats to my house, I take it over there.
Co-host/Contributor
That's a good neighbor.
Bobby Bones
I don't knock. I like, run out too. So I don't think I'm burglarizing their house.
Amy
Run and drop it.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it's like, oh my God, get out of here. One of my neighbors never home. They live there like three months of the year.
Amy
Oh.
Bobby Bones
So don't worry about that. The other neighbor's friends with Amy and Amy's been over to their house.
Co-host/Contributor
That's weird.
Bobby Bones
I never even. I never even met him.
Amy
Well, they're not really there right now. They're renovating that entire thing. So they moved out.
Bobby Bones
Well, don't say that. You mean go rob it.
Co-host/Contributor
They won't be there for three months
Bobby Bones
and they left all their valuables in there. So
Morgan
it's the best bits of the week with Morgan number two.

Host/Producer
Speaking of homes, Lunchbox shared that he went to Sheryl Crow's estate sale and he talked all about what the experience was like. But then Sheryl Crow responded and shared a little bit more details.
Bobby Bones
Number two, Fox went to Sheryl Crow's house. I don't even know if we should talk about this. Wait, why do you think it's okay?
L
Why wouldn't you?
Amy
Okay, well, let's start with did she know you were there?
L
I mean, I didn't talk to her.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so what happened?
L
Sheryl Crow was having an estate sale. She didn't die.
Bobby Bones
But how do you know it was her? Was it on the sign? Sheryl Crow's House?
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Yeah.
L
Everybody knows.
Bobby Bones
No, no, no. You said, yeah, but then you said, everybody knows.
L
So one my wife said, hey, Cheryl Crow's having an estate sale. You want to go? And I said, absolutely. I'm not big into these sales, but I would love to go snoop around Shell Crow's house.
Bobby Bones
Does she currently live there?
L
Currently lives there. And let me tell you. Did you know she has longhorns on her land? Like, in her yard?
Co-host/Contributor
Cows. Like a real cows?
Mitchell Tenpenny
Yeah.
L
Like, they're just there. There's grazing in the grass.
Bobby Bones
She just had people at her house?
L
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Buying stuff?
Amy
Yeah.
L
Just right there in her house.
Bobby Bones
Did they take down pictures so you wouldn't know it was her?
L
No, but she has. I mean, it's not, like, pictures of her, like, and it's very. Her theme. Her is older. Like, all of her stuff is vintage antiques.
Bobby Bones
Why would she have an estate sale?
L
The people running it said, just get rid of some stuff. She has a lot of stuff. And so she.
Bobby Bones
Was it. Her main house.
L
Main house?
Bobby Bones
You went into Sherwood's main house.
Co-host/Contributor
Were you walking all over the house? Like, could you.
L
Where they let you go? Like, there's certain spots you can't go.
Bobby Bones
Like Graceland. You can't go upstairs.
L
Yeah, but. But I was just like, this is so crazy that I'm at Sheryl Crow's house, and I wanted to take pictures. My wife only let me take pictures of the livestock on the land. She wouldn't let me take pictures in the house. She was like, no, we're not doing that. That is too awkward.
Bobby Bones
Is this weird that we're talking about this?
Lunchbox (Daniel)
No.
Bobby Bones
Or because she had an estate sale and he's not revealing where it is? It's okay.
L
I can tell you where it was.
Amy
No, no, don't.
Bobby Bones
No, no, no. I'm just surprised that they would let people to her house.
Amy
Mm.
Bobby Bones
So she have cool stuff?
L
Cool stuff.
Bobby Bones
Good. Nice house.
L
Yeah, nice house. Beautiful.
Bobby Bones
Rich and.
L
Oh, she's rich. She got money. And I bought two items just because Sheryl Crowe. I was like, we gotta buy something.
Amy
So. Like what, like a salt and pepper shaker?
L
No, I bought two bricks that have guitars on them. I guess they are from Belmont University. And when they remodeled, they got rid of the bricks, and she had a bunch of the bricks, so bought the bricks.
Bobby Bones
So it's just the brick. How much those run you?
L
They weren't cheap, like, 20 bucks.
Co-host/Contributor
$20.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
For bricks.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
L
And then we bought a. I guess they called it a print. But then someone went in with hand details and drew in. It's like a tree picture. I don't really understand it.
Bobby Bones
Not of her.
L
Not of her. It's just a tree.
Bobby Bones
How much you spend on it?
L
50 bucks.
Bobby Bones
Thanks. Like, Shock has a reasonable sale.
Co-host/Contributor
Yeah, not bad.
Bobby Bones
It's still going.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
I don't know. It may be over.
Bobby Bones
No guitars.
L
May have another one.
Bobby Bones
No guitar stuff?
L
No, nothing like that.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
What?
Co-host/Contributor
Was a cool item there that you're like, I can't buy? That's too expensive.
L
Just furniture. Like, furniture was really. I mean, out of this world. Expensive.
Bobby Bones
Really? Like, what price?
L
Thousand dollars.
Bobby Bones
For what?
L
Like a wooden thing? I got like a.
Bobby Bones
Like an armor chest or maybe an arm.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Armor war?
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
L
Yeah, something like that. Like that. You put, like, nice dishes in.
Amy
Oh, that. Well, I. Hutch.
Bobby Bones
I don't know.
L
I don't know. I don't know, but it was, like, $1,000. That's ridiculous.
Bobby Bones
But what?
Amy
No, that sounds great. I guess, just depending.
L
I didn't. I didn't need it. I just wanted something because it was Sheryl Crowe's house. So now when people come to my house, I'm like, you know where I got that?
Co-host/Contributor
That brick house?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it was. She wasn't there.
L
She was not there.
Bobby Bones
What's the best Sheryl Crow song ever? I'm gonna go with Gotta Feel like Hell Tonight.
Amy
Well, I love Picture.
Bobby Bones
That's a kid rock song.
Amy
Is it? Is it?
Bobby Bones
She's in it. But that's a kid.
Amy
Okay, fine.
Co-host/Contributor
All I want to do All I
Bobby Bones
want to do is have some fun that's the song you're singing?
Amy
Yeah.
Co-host/Contributor
So what's the first cut?
Bobby Bones
The first cut is the DB That's a cover. It's a cover.
Co-host/Contributor
It's a good song.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. A massive Sheryl Crow fan. I still am, but mass like, dude,
L
you could have had some of her property.
Bobby Bones
One of the first CDs I ever got.
Amy
If it makes you happy.
Bobby Bones
If it makes you happy oh, jam so good. What else you got over there?
Amy
You so sad.
Mitchell Tenpenny

Bobby Bones
He's only got Eddie Talks.
Mitchell Tenpenny

Amy

Amy
I thought we did that one. I wanna tell everyone. Let's see. Do you know Long Road Home?
Bobby Bones
Nope.
Amy
That's on a Christmas album.
Bobby Bones
No, I'm not gonna act like a dude.
Amy
Always on your side what are you looking at? Cheryl Crow songs.
Bobby Bones
Like on. Did you Google them?
Amy
Huh? Strong enough yeah.
Bobby Bones
Strong enough to be. That's what I was thinking. Gotta feel I heard tonight Tears of rage I cannot fight I'll be the bet to help you understand Are you strong enough to be My man My man so.
Amy
Goodness, A change would do you good
Bobby Bones
I think a change that. A change would do you good Would do you good that change would do you good that's. Every day is a winding road. Yeah. Yeah. My favorite mistake.
Amy
Yeah. My favorite. Yeah, I know.
Bobby Bones
Close enough. Anyway. That's cool. Lunchbox. Lunchbox went to Sheryl Crow's house. That's cool. He's been sick pretty much all week. We got Lunchbox on the phone, Mr. Covid. We call him Daniel Covid. Lunchbox, are you there?
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Hey, man, how's it going?
Bobby Bones
How's your voice? How you feel?
Lunchbox (Daniel)
I am back.
Amy
No, he's trying to sound good.
Co-host/Contributor
Sounds better, though.
Amy
Yeah, he does sound better, but he's. You're definitely working it.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
I'm not working anything. I'm just working the phones here. I'm just. You know, when you call, I answer. That's how it is. And I sound good. I. I should be in that studio today.
Amy
Except for maybe potentially still contagious.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Yeah. Potentially. I mean, no.
Amy
No doubt.
Bobby Bones
Potentially, no. So here's what we're going to do. Just so everybody knows, with today being Thursday, tomorrow's end of the week. Lunchbox will not be in today, obviously, or tomorrow. We'll just fresh, because I'll have Saturday and Sunday.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Wait, wait. Friday. I can't even come in Friday, I
Bobby Bones
think, because it's only one day. What? We'll give him all those days to get better.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Yeah, but you need me for the dance party.
Bobby Bones
We're good. No, no, we think. We think you need to stay. Don't dance, get back to normal. Did any of your family get Covid?
Lunchbox (Daniel)
No, not that I know. I'm nothing yet. And maybe, you know, here's the thing. Maybe my kids had it, you know, because they had little sniffles like last week, but they didn't seem to be bothered. But I don't know, maybe that's what they had, maybe they didn't. I don't know.
Bobby Bones
I got an update for you if you'd like to hear it.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
About what?
Bobby Bones
Talk to Sheryl Crow.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Oh, what she had to say.
Bobby Bones
You weren't at her house.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Okay. That's why it said Cheryl Caro. And I bought her stuff.
Amy
Oh, he was a Cheryl Carroll.
Co-host/Contributor
Cheryl Carroll. She's different.
Bobby Bones
Lunchbox said he went to Sheryl Crowe's house because she was having an estate sale. And I thought first, should we even be talking about this on the air? And then two, why would Sheryl Crow just invite people over to her house? By the way, Sheryl Crowe, massive music star. So many number one hits over the years. And so she said that you were at her parents house and it's a house that they're selling. She doesn't live there.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Oh, man. Yeah, that sucks.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. So I just wanted to update you on that.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Then why did I buy the stuff?
Bobby Bones
Well, you only bought two bricks, which was kind of weird.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
And a painting, a tree painting kind of thing. I don't know what it was, but
Co-host/Contributor
that's Sheryl Crow's mom's painting.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, Sheryl Crowe's parents painting.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But I wanted to be able to say I had Cheryl Crow stuff. That was the whole point.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, you can't though. Now the point is you. You can say you have Cheryl Crowe's parents painting.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Now I got a. Now hear me out. Could she be saying this to cover her tracks now, now that the word's out?
Bobby Bones
No, because she also said they're selling that house and that house is for sale. Yeah.
Co-host/Contributor
She also say, like if Lunchbox wants to buy it.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah. If you want to buy that house, you can.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Yeah, I'm sure I could really afford that. I mean, I made to sell my three children and a couple appendages.
Bobby Bones
We weren't there. We don't know how big it was.
Morgan
It's the best bits of the week with Morgan.
Host/Producer
Number two, there is a new dating trend. And in talking about that, we heard about Amy's dating life. If she's dating again, back on the apps, or even getting set up by friends or DM slides, we got the whole update for you.
Bobby Bones
Number one, there's a new trend on the dating scene. The 67 trend.
Amy
What's that?
Bobby Bones
Well, it's not 6 7, but it's mostly finding somebody that's a 6 or 7. So they're not hot enough to leave you.
Amy
Oh, they're a 6 or 7 on the scale.
Co-host/Contributor
That's funny.
Bobby Bones
The 67 trend is attractive, but not dangerously so. And so there's a song too. Wanna be happy for the rest of your life? Never make a pretty woman your wife.
Amy
So from my personal point of view, pick an ugly girl to marry you.
Co-host/Contributor
So funny.
Bobby Bones
That the wrong. No, but yeah, that was funny. The 67 trend she explains, this person is like, hey, it's not all about looks. I hear you.
Amy
Yeah, it's not.
Co-host/Contributor
But.
Amy
But there has to be attraction.
Bobby Bones
Of course.
Amy
Yeah.
Co-host/Contributor
And that's looks.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's from Essence. How's it going with you back on the dating scene?
Co-host/Contributor
Come on, Amy.
Amy
I'm not on it. I'm not. I'm not on it. I mean, my friends are sending me things from matchmakers.
Bobby Bones
Like they're going to matchmakers in your honor.
Amy
No, I guess there's reels. Matchmakers are now putting up reels, like saying, you know, hey, matchmaker Sally here, and I've got A nice man, 6 2, in Charleston looking for a woman ages 45 to 60. He's successful.
Bobby Bones
Why not just DM that person then?
Amy
What do you mean?
Bobby Bones
Did you have to pay the matchmaker?
Amy
No, I don't know how it works. My friends just have been sending me, you know how, like in Instagram, you can just, like, send someone a reel? You know, I send you stuff all the time.
Bobby Bones
Amy's getting really out of control on sending me stuff.
Lunchbox (Daniel)
Really?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, she's starting to be that person. I like it. Some of it's good, but some of it, she just gets fooled by AI too much.
Amy
Right, right, right, right, right. Well, this is not AI These are legit, real matchmakers, and they are turning to reels, I guess, to find matches
Bobby Bones
for their suitors and anybody you're interested in?
Amy
No, I mean, they sound good.
Bobby Bones
Has anybody asked you on a date here in town?
Amy
No.
Bobby Bones
What's your age range? What's the low end?
Amy
Not thought about it.
Bobby Bones
Well, let's think about it now. What's the low end of your age range?
Amy
40. Oh, I'm 45.
Bobby Bones
You wouldn't date a 38 year old.
Amy
I don't know. Listen, I had experience with someone in their 30s and that did not go well.
Bobby Bones
Boy, did you?
Co-host/Contributor
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
So we'd see him driving our car, we'd be like, oh, boy.
Amy
You know, I don't know. I think I. I want someone definitely, you know, fine. They could be in their late 30s, but must be mature.
Bobby Bones
And what's the oldest, must have a job?
Amy
56.
Bobby Bones
So you're looking for like, 38 to 56.
Amy
Sure. And it.
Co-host/Contributor
What was your ex. How old was your ex?
Amy
55.
Co-host/Contributor
Okay, so one year old?
Amy
No. Oh, my gosh. I just aged him, I think. Did he just turn. Oh, my gosh, he was 50, 53. And maybe he turned 55. Or maybe he's turning 55 this year. I was with him for a while, but he was 53. And I was definite when we first started dating. And I definitely was like, wow, 50. And I had gone on a date before that with a guy that was actually 50 and couldn't believe I was doing that.
Bobby Bones
So, any dudes DMing you?
Amy
What I've learned from this is like, I'll. I'll get used to the age. Every age that I thought was too old, I've gotten used to it. So I guess I don't really want to put a limit, but seven dudes too high.
Bobby Bones
Any dudes in your DMs?
Amy
No.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Amy
No.
Bobby Bones
Would you get on a dating app?
Amy
Not that I've noticed.
Bobby Bones
Would you get on a dating app again?
Amy
Not at this time. I'm not saying no to that ever. But I don't know. These matchmakers are. They're good at their job because the reels my friends have sent, they're not looking for someone.
Bobby Bones
Tell me about one of the guys they sent you.
Amy
Okay, let me pull up because I'm
Bobby Bones
sure they're the cream of the crop guys if they're putting them on on social media.
Amy
Yeah, well, we might have audio. Maybe we just play it.
Bobby Bones
Oh, you have audio? Hit it.
Amy
Yeah.
Matchmaker
I have a client and we are looking for the love of his life. He's a CEO of a national company. He's extremely successful. Six foot one, and he is a silver fox. He was born and raised in dfw. He has multiple homes, one in Kerrville and another one in New York. And he enjoys traveling to and from those homes. He is very much of a man's man. He's not afraid to get his hands dirty. But he also has a little bit of a creative, artsy side. So he enjoys the theater, the symphony, the opera. He's looking to meet someone between the ages of 45 to 60. Someone who truly wants a companionship and partnership. Someone who is bright, intellectual, open minded, and someone who doesn't take themselves too seriously.
Amy
That's why my friend sent it to
Bobby Bones
me, because I'll date him. Screw it, I'm in.
Amy
Wait, it gets better. There's another guy. Hit it, Ray.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Matchmaker
I have a client and we are looking for the love of his life. He's 6 foot 2, he's a physician, full head of salt and pepper hair, and light blue eyes. He has a wicked sense of humor, highly intellectual, very handsome, polished, professional. But he's someone that definitely doesn't take himself too seriously. And I find myself laughing every time that I talk to him. He's looking to meet someone 45 to 60, someone who's open minded, who can have a conversation about a walk, a wide range of things. Someone who lives a healthy, active lifestyle, who's emotionally intelligent and kind.
Bobby Bones
That's like the greatest hits of somebody I know.
Amy
So my friends sent me both of those and when I'm watching them, I'm like, I'm 45. He sounds awesome. But they're not. They're where they're looking for them in certain parts of the country. Like the matchmaker looks like she'll work all over, but she'll be like, I have a client in New York or I have a client in Dallas or South Carolina. And I'm like, okay, well I'm. I'm in Nashville, so.
Co-host/Contributor
And is there a picture of the guy as she's talking?
Amy
No. No. I don't know. Do you have to dm. Oh, I saw this one guy.
Bobby Bones
And that's how they get you for the money? Well, yeah, yeah.
Amy
Oh, I mean, I'd have to pay. No, the guy's paying. I wouldn't have to pay. The guy has paid her, so I. I don't have to pay.
Bobby Bones
If somebody pays me, I'll do a thing on them. On mine.
Amy
Okay. Yes, you can do me.
Bobby Bones
Weird thing to say.
Amy
Uh huh. Amy, you could say, I know this girl, she's 40. What would you say about me?
Bobby Bones
She's 45.
Amy
She's so funny.
Bobby Bones
I'd say, hey everybody, boy, do I got the person for you. She is very random, but it's funny. She has ADHD and at times it affects her more than others. And I hold up a sheet of all her doodles she's done during an entire show that is just a complete blacked out sheet of paper. I say something positive. She has a nice car. And she.
Amy
Something positive.
Co-host/Contributor
You do have a nice car.
Bobby Bones
Two houses.
Amy
Oh, yeah. Okay. I have. She's successful.
Bobby Bones
Oh yeah. She's got a nice car, she's successful,
Amy
and she's 5 6.
Bobby Bones
She has gold. She does have gold. That's right.
Amy
What about something nice about my personality?
Co-host/Contributor
You're funny.
Bobby Bones
I did say that.
Amy
No, he said she's random.
Bobby Bones
You're random. That's funny.
Co-host/Contributor
Yeah, that's good.
Amy
Am I kind of.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, you're nice.
Amy
Kind of nice are different.
Bobby Bones
But you. I just.
Co-host/Contributor
Amy, he's writing it.
Amy
Okay, you write it. Keep going.
Co-host/Contributor
But I like this better than the ones that she played because like, this is more of a normal person, not like the greatest hits like you said.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. And she is struggling with perimenopause. I don't know what that is, but I put that in there.
Co-host/Contributor
That's good.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. She doesn't watch. She watches a lot of shows, but really doesn't watch any show at the same time. Meaning she turns shows on that we like and then just. Just gets distracted and just leaves it on and gives bad reviews.
Amy
I'm on testosterone.
Bobby Bones
She spoiled. She's on testosterone. So she shaves her mustache every day.
Amy
I do shave my face, but not for that reason.
Host/Producer
Okay, well, I don't really.
Bobby Bones
Then I wouldn't like this. But seriously, she's great. Hit me up for more details. That's what I would say. Okay, but then they would know what was you and just DM you.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Nah, Good luck with that. When do you think you'll start dating?
Amy
I have no idea. It's honestly not on my like to do list right now. I'm feeling very comfortable with where I am in the moment. No rush on anything. Feel good.
Bobby Bones
Also, all those profiles, it sounds like they're just like flexing how much money people have in the beginning. Two houses, physician. He walks around with no less than $1,300 in cash in each pocket.
Co-host/Contributor
But then they level it out with. He doesn't take himself too seriously though.
Bobby Bones
And also it's like he's wickedly funny. He makes me laugh so much so I hooked up with him.
Morgan
It's the best bits of the week with Morgan. Number two.
Host/Producer
And that's it. You're officially caught up on the Bobby Bone show from this week. Thanks for being here again. Check out part one. Part three. This weekend it is with Eddie. If you've never listened before, it's a fun time. We have random catch up inside jokes that happen especially in part one. Otherwise, if that's not your speed, you can check out my podcast. Take this personally. This week I had on a grief coach. She was incredible. Not only is she helping others walk through their grief, but she started this because she lost two of her sons tragically and now helping others. So her story is really inspirational and one that I think if you're struggling with grief, it's one you'll want to hear. Otherwise, if this is where I leave you, thanks for being here this weekend on Best Bits and I'll yap with y' all next weekend.

Best 7 Segments From The Bobby Bones Show This Week
Date: April 11, 2026
Host: Bobby Bones (Premiere Networks)
This episode of The Bobby Bones Show Compilation highlights the seven best segments from the week, featuring lively studio banter, special guest appearances, personal stories, and updates from the crew's lives. From country artist Mitchell Tenpenny's impending fatherhood to revelations about the hosts' neighborhoods and homes, the episode covers a broad range of relatable, humorous, and often touching subjects.
[03:59–17:49]
[20:34–24:42]
Eddie reports a spate of graffiti in his neighborhood and organizes a dad-led night patrol with beers and flashlights.
Bobby and Amy debate the wisdom (and legality) of this vigilante approach, suggesting involving the police instead.
The hosts reminisce about "Adopt a Highway" programs and street-cleaning pride, leading to playful envy over street signs.
[24:47–29:30]
[29:31–30:38]
[44:25–48:41]
[37:04–44:20]
[55:49–64:30]
[64:33–73:13]
As always, the studio maintains a lighthearted, honest, and often self-deprecating tone. Banter is candid, quick, and often tangential, reflecting the personalities and relationships among crew members. Listeners get both humor and heart in segments involving family, health, and personal growth.
Whether discussing the quirks of neighborhood life, sharing personal milestones, or recalling childhood envy over highway signs, this episode exemplifies The Bobby Bones Show’s engaging blend of country music culture, comic relief, and sincere storytelling. For new listeners, it’s a fast-track to the highlights of the team’s chemistry and individual personalities; for long-time fans, it’s a week-in-review full of callbacks, running gags, and the occasional revelation.
